Vikings beat Ravens, 33-31. Choked the Ravens, "3-in-a-row". Vikes 6-0.

Gettin' too old for this shit. Down-to-the-wire games. My brother and I were collectively hyperventilating the last 5 minutes. Favre was on fire with 3 TDs and a 58-yard pass to set up the go-ahead field goal that eventually won the game.

Vikings offense played great. Defense played a great first half - then completely dismantled in the 2nd half...particularly the 4th quarter. Call it what you will - injuries in the Viking D, prevent defense, soft coverage. Whatever...the Ravens missed a FG with 2 seconds left on the clock that could've won the game for them. Too bad. Vikings need to finish games. If they're having trouble putting away opponents, then they need to play every minute as if it's a 2-minute drill.

NEXT WEEK: Vikings (6-0) @ Steelers (4-2).
